Probably this is not going to be the most popular comment I’ve made on the TON forum but I’m going to say it anyway.
I agree with a lot of what
@JV2009 has said earlier on today.
Everything under the sun was blamed on Brad and the criticism really started to intensify once we hit around 15 c (from 18 c). All I know is that
TON has completely collapsed since then while the new company he has joined has skyrocketed since then.
I heard that brokers and instos were mad at Boyle and everything would change once he left and instos would finally take us seriously. Yet
nothing has happened and we are languishing. Meanwhile the new company he joined rose today, and finished in the green, while we took a huge hit (finally finished flat at least thankfully).
I heard that Brad gave too much info and was too open with shareholders with phone calls and other stuff.
At least with Brad, I had the top 20 updated regularly, shareholders were updated regularly, and we always knew what was going on with the company. Now, we don’t even have that basic info.
I’ve head that Brad dumped millions of shares causing the fall. Well as JV2009 mentioned, there could be so much more to it. Without a top 20, I don’t even know firstly, whether Brad has really sold his shares or not. There could be 100 other reasons for the sale including an
agreement with management that he would do so once he left, agreement with his prospective new and current employers, financial issues, etc. etc.
I’ve heard that Brad was a fool for selling off at 12-15 cents or so.
And yet, we are now 50% down while Brad was the lucky one, and can now buy twice the amount of shares if he wants.
I’ve heard that Brad would never get a job with an ASX company. And yet
he is here with a job with a competing graphite company whose share price has been soaring over the last few months.
Anyway, I’m still waiting for that mega share boost which was supposed to come once Brad left.
Good luck to Brad and his new company from me at least – I don’t grudge it one bit.
Once more, none of this is a criticism of current management or anyone - just making that clear. I prefer concentrating on errors and mistakes and seeing how to learn from them rather than pointing fingers at people.
I just think the criticism of Brad and blaming everything on him, was a bit overdone.
Having said that, I am not as close to the action and perhaps others could be right. Quite honestly, I don’t know. I’ll be keenly watching the share price of this new competing company in the coming year to form a better opinion. In any case, like I said, it is all the very best to Brad from me.
